[AusNOG] PIPE NSW Changing Details

[Joseph Goldman]

Hi list,

  I am just wondering if this is normal - trying to change MAC address 
for router port after urgent change-over for our PIPE peering connection 
in NSW, request was sent through to the MACD team but they are telling 
me the request needs to be approved by their management and ETA is 3-5 
business days??

  I'm not a massive user of PIPE IX but I have now been without it for 
24 hours and its looking like it could be another 48-72 hours before 
getting it back! For someone who might get a LOT of their traffic via 
PIPE IX this would be a pretty bad amount of downtime, as other transit 
links would have to pick up the slack.

  If any PIPE engineers on list willing to help the request move a 
little quicker I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
Joe
